Cement Plant

[Patches]

I'm leasing the Map Cement Plant with a mod. I adding 20,000 rocks or so. It says it's produced 470 or so Cement Bricks which is what I wanted. It's been a half day and all night and nothing is showing in the marked space out front for pick-up.

Is there a step I'm missing.
thanks

Check what its set to, storage, distribute, sell.. It might be set wrong.

It can store it, distribute it or sell it.

Not to bother you, but where would I distribute tit to. I assume it's in a chain somewhere.

Thanks

Good, I'm selling, I'm broke. I have a front loader, trailor and small tractor waiting there I take back home, ha.

It would auto send it to factories that use whats in it. Have not touched cement factory so dont know the production chain. Also if broke.. your better off manually selling them not auto selling. I dont know the percentage BUT you do lose money selling that way. If you can, transport the production to a selling point. on Z... what ever name of map is. You can sell the bricks at the warehouse.

So far, while they are in Storage. I can't see them. They've just been selling as I see the money going up. But before I was just selling the rocks there. Maybe they have a number like 1000 L before they show up.

if you know
thanks a lot, I'll leave you alone

Not exactly sure what you are asking but..
If set to storage you should see pallets or some thing piling up. If selling stone it wont make bricks. Check what it is set to. And see if your storing bricks and stone. Or if your selling stone. This is how should look if actually storing the bricks.

I do not own a production facility on this map yet so can't show image of them piling up sorry.

Yow, it's set to making Cement Bricks. It shows how many stones I have in Storage and it showed how many Cement Bricks I had before selling them, it was like 484 L. Now it sells every X amount, I haven't watched yet to find out. I'm doing another Rock Job as I type.

Out front of the building is the standard rectangle yellow and black striped pick-up area. I'll watch a youtube video later. I don't want to take up any more of your time.

thanks

Your taking none of my time dont worry :-) When i set all my tractors to do some thing with AI. I get on forum to find stuff to read. So in actuality its the opposite of taking my time. Your are giving me distraction/entertainment. So feel free to ask :-) And that marked area on the ground is where they should appear.

The pallets will only spawn when a FULL pallet has been accumulated. So you're not going to see a pallet until the plant has made 1000L of cement. As of right now, there's no way to force it to spawn an incomplete pallet.

That was my last thought, 1000L I'll switch it back to storage so I can make more. Since I got all the stuff to make it happen. I've got over 20,000L stones in storage and counting.

thanks for the info, save me watching a youtube.

Thats odd though. Because my bee hives kept putting out partial pallets on riverbend. I mostly ignored them but did see partial pallets on ground.

Ok, thanks.

I'm getting a lot of Rock Removal Contracts. It's hard to do AI with them. When the storage gets full with the AI, they just keep going until they hit something. I thought in '22 they would stop, it would still be costing you, but at least they stopped. I think.
